Would like suggestions on my Super Mario Bros. 3 stage!

[TruePhilosopher]

Since it's for the community, I want to ask here to see what people like.  I plan on making 2 different versions of the stage.  It is going to be the area where you fight Bowser.




The two versions will be one with non-breakable blocks and one with breakable blocks (as soon as I figure out the animation process to do so. Also just a heads up, yes I realize I can only do 9 breakable blocks tops).  The non-breakable version is done and I'll go ahead and say the stage is mostly in 3-D so no worries about this being a cheap 2-D stage (not that all 2-D stages are bad).  The opinions I want are what weren't in the original version.  Such as should there be a moving platform underneath the stage?  Or maybe some on the sides?  Should I add in any extra art from the Mario universe?  Or should I simply leave it as is and release the first version?  And just so everyone knows the picture is NOT my stage! (As if that's not obvious haha) Thanks to anyone who lends an opinion!

Edit:  Also another heads up, the current layout is a Final Destination-ish type stage, as in it has a single platform currently...for the most part.

Yay... More Bowser themed stages in Brawl! XD

As for opinions for the stage, I'm not sure what to say yet. I think an actual pic of your stage should be added so we can give more constructive input on it.  ;)

Either way though, I think you should release V1 of your stage ASAP, I want to play on this... lol

It would be awesome if you can make another part of the stage, you know, uhnder those blocks xD
then when those boxes are destroyed you can go down and fight there, but its just an idea :P

Make the other version of the stage, too.

...the version where you fly over the brick wall on the left.

[KTH]

That should be awesome if you put a Bowser SM3 (example Bowser by Lensho) and bellow the camera he destroy the block.

i want just a SMb3 based stage we got non of them

[Anivernage]

you can put a mario model fighting that bowser behind the stage like pkm trainer and animate them fighting and animating end when bowser falls off the stage and break the blocks.

maybe its too much make all but maybe use some of my ideas.

This was taken in BrawlBox, however it gives you the general idea of what to expect.



Since I'm limited to 9 blocks I'll have 4 breakable on top, 3 in the middle and 2 on the bottom.  I think that would be for the best.  As far as the ideas have been so far I'm liking them!  An area beneath the stage would be interesting as it would be similar to Spear Pillar.  Also the part to the left would be interesting, but I'll have to expand the stage boundaries to do so.  I always loved that you could nerf Bowser's fire to puffs of smoke by doing that trick xD.  Anyways including SMB3 Bowser would be too epic for words haha, I just have to figure out the best way to incorporate him.  Hope everyone likes how it looks so far btw!

Update Edit:  I will be including a .brstm file of this song:

I replied in the help topic as well, but I'll post it here just in case.

Thank you very much!  :af2:

Expanding the stage is a easy thing to do. Do you think I should expand it by one or two extra blocks on each side? I want this stage to be as good as possible for nostalgia and gameplay.

[DoctorFlux(Mariodk)]

just resizer anything not add more blocks but make them abit bigger

[TruePhilosopher]

Ah that's not too hard either.  I'll try .mdl0 resizer and if that doesn't work I'll edit them manually tonight.

Edit:  I have now resized the stage to be more spacious to Brawl on!  It's not a whole lot larger, but it is enough I think.  If it's not just let me know guys!  :D

Also mdl0 resizer is a pain in the butt with so many models to resize!  :srs:

I am glad that we have such a program, but it'd be nice if it did everything (or had the option to do everything) in a .brres file.

You can scale it with animations, you know...
